About this property

Blue Door at Indian Canyons – Mid-Century Retreat with Pool, Spa, Golf Course and Mountain Views

Discover a breathtaking blend of mid‑century architecture, modern luxury, and iconic desert scenery at this beautifully updated 1963 villa, located directly on the historic Indian Canyons North Course - the very first 18‑hole golf course in Palm Springs. Set on a sprawling quarter‑acre lot with unobstructed views of the San Jacinto Mountains, this exceptional Palm Springs vacation rental offers a resort‑style outdoor oasis, glamorous interiors, and the quintessential indoor‑outdoor lifestyle the desert is famous for.

The expansive backyard is a private paradise, featuring an in‑ground pool with integrated spa, a fire‑pit lounge, built‑in BBQ, and a covered outdoor dining pavilion. Towering palm trees, lush landscaping, and sweeping mountain views create a postcard‑perfect setting from sunrise to sunset. Whether you're lounging by the pool, enjoying cocktails by the fire, or hosting dinner under the stars, this outdoor retreat delivers the ultimate Palm Springs getaway experience.

Inside, the home feels like it was lifted from the pages of Architectural Digest or Elle Decor. The glamorous mid‑century aesthetic is reimagined with high‑style furnishings, bold design moments, and a sophisticated palette that honors the home's 1960s pedigree. Moveable walls of glass blur the line between indoors and out, while the open‑concept floor plan features a chic wet bar, gas fireplace, and a stunning chef's kitchen perfect for entertaining.

Every modern comfort has been thoughtfully integrated, including high‑speed internet, five flatscreen TVs with cable, updated bathrooms, and spacious sleeping quarters. The extensive remodel respects the home's architectural roots while elevating it for today's travelers seeking a luxurious Palm Springs pool home with designer flair.
The four beautifully styled bedrooms each offer hotel‑quality mattresses, flatscreen TVs, and ample storage.
Primary Suite: King bed, sliding doors to the yard, en‑suite bath with outdoor access.
Second Primary Suite / Casita: Private exterior entrance, King bed, fireplace, wet bar, sliding doors to the yard, and an en‑suite bath with a soaking tub.
Third Suite: Two Queen beds, sliding doors to the yard, and a private en‑suite bath.
Fourth Bedroom: King bed, television, comfortable furnishings, and access to the hallway bathroom.

Located in the prestigious Indian Canyons neighborhood, this home sits among some of Palm Springs' most architecturally significant properties. The area is rich with mid‑century history - home to iconic architects like Palmer & Krisel and Donald Wexler, and once the desert retreat of celebrities including Frank Sinatra, Walt Disney, Don Adams, and Jerome Factor. With its estate‑like lots, dramatic mountain backdrop, and timeless design, Indian Canyons remains one of the most exclusive and sought‑after neighborhoods in Palm Springs.

Despite its serene setting, the home is just minutes from the South Palm Springs Business District and the world‑famous Palm Canyon Drive. Enjoy easy access to top‑rated restaurants, cafés, boutiques, grocers, cocktail lounges, and beloved local favorites like Mr. Lyons, The Purple Room, Moorten Botanical Garden, and Pho 533. It's the ideal location for guests who want privacy and tranquility while staying close to everything Palm Springs has to offer.

This extraordinary villa captures the magic, glamour, and effortless sophistication of Southern California desert living. Whether you're seeking a luxurious retreat, a design‑forward Palm Springs vacation rental, or a spacious home for gathering with friends and family, this Indian Canyons masterpiece delivers an unforgettable experience.

Great place to stay for our family. Plenty of room - excellent location. The pool and spa were used multiple times a day. Backyard has nice seating areas including the fire pit. It’s on the fairway but feels secluded with nice view of the mountains and stars. Very well appointed.

The house was very roomy and comfortable, very well equipped and clean. Pool was also well maintained. Great location. We would definitely stay here again. I think there are a few things that could enhance the property ( rugs and sofa cleaned, driveway repaired) but all in all a great experience. My only “complaint” was the use of scented detergent and fabric softener on the towels and sheets- I am very sensitive to that and would encourage the use of unscented products in the future.

This house worked perfectly for 4 couples, with each bedroom having the ensuite bathroom. The kitchen is super for a large group and very well stocked. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, plenty of linens were provided and we enjoyed the welcome goodies. I highly recommend staying here!

Fabulous home for 8 adults!

This home was an absolute delight! We were in town for a family reunion and loved the kitchen size and outside dining and seating areas to sit, relax, float in pool, soak in hot tub and tell stories, share memories and photos! The kitchen was beautifully equipped! Highly recommend!

This was the best home we have ever stayed at in Palm Springs. The host was very responsive and communicated well. The house is extremely spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. It perfectly suited our extended family including young grandkids and dogs. We spent many hours in the heated pool and spa even when the winter weather conditions weren't ideal. We had not stayed in this area of Palm Springs before and loved the quiet neighborhood and wide, low-traffic streets, perfect for the kids to enjoy their new Christmas bikes. The unobstructed views of the mountains are spectacular! We will definitely return!

Spring "Break" :)

We love the Indian Canyons neighborhood location. This house was perfect for our group of 6 adults and two kids; plenty of space, all the necessities and GREAT property management communication. Super clean, great pool/spa outdoor area, the casita is very nice and easily accessed from the main home. Bedrooms, bathrooms all great; all the amenities. Quiet welcoming neighborhood, easy for good walks - on a golf course, easy access to town. 10/10 - There were two small issues inside the house, but the mgmt company addressed them quickly and to resolution !! We were all very happy!!
